Re: Question for you restoration guys and our purists?
What am I missing that you're not searching for a V12220YH? If it's different at all, is that any better or worse than being completely different?

Re: Question for you restoration guys and our purists?
For mere money a close block or even the exact date block with the wrong suffix can be "reidentified".

of coarse... a V1220YH engine from a 1967 blue longbox CST with A/C, PS, PB, Buddy Buckets and a wood floor would be a dream come true. Because the engine is all I am missing... the TH400 and the 3.73 posi rearend is all still there. I am not 100% on if the 3.73 and posi are correct or even still in there. But the Protect-o-Plate correct rear axle housing is there. I seem to remember the codes leading me to that conclusion or maybe I am dreamimg there. I am no where near the numbers to verify at the moment.
